Bishop Stephen Andrews is pleased to announce the appointment of The Reverend Christopher Davis as Incumbent of the combined parish of Almaguin and Emsdale, as of 1 September 2016.

Mr Davis was ordained in Montreal in 1985, having studied at Regent College and Wycliffe College. He served a curacy in the Eastern Townships of Quebec before going to Kasechewan to minister on the Cree Reserve on the James Bay. He subsequently spent time in rural parishes in Ontario before going back to the north where he has spent time in the dioceses of Moosonee, Yukon and the Arctic.

At the same time, we are sad to say that The Reverend Paul Walmsley has submitted his resignation as Incumbent of Christ Church, Port Sydney, effective 14 September 2016. He and his wife Dianne will be moving to Ingersoll, where they will be closer to family.

We pray for Chris and his wife Winsome, and for Paul and Dianne as ministries are concluded and begun.
